Ripley’sThis armor kept its wearer ready for battle. 🗡️ For nearly 700 years, Japanese samurai served as warriors and protectors. During Japan’s Edo period, some wore tatami gusoku, a type of armor designed to provide protection while allowing greater freedom of movement. Unlike heavier, rigid armor styles, tatami gusoku was designed to sit more flexibly on the body, helping samurai move with greater ease. #Ripleys #BION #RipleysBelieveItorNot #BelieveItorNot
